    ctrl+c and ctrl+v stopped working in windows 10


    Hi,

    this week I have encountered problem with ctrl+c and ctrl+v - these two useful shortcuts stopped working. It is not working anywhere in windows. (windows 10, updated 1803)

    ctrl+x works so problem is not in keyboard


    My clipboard works when I do copy/paste with mouse - so clipboard itself is working.


    I have tried uninstalling drivers, running sfc
    running

    dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
    dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup


    Any other options or some hidden settings to check?

    :)

    Ctrl+V doesn't work

    My Ctrl+V key was working fine until earlier day. I system restored, and Ctrl+V worked fine for about an hour... then it stopped working again. I didn't have this issue until I upgraded to Windows 10. Ctrl+C works and so do other Ctrl shortcuts, but not
    Ctrl+V, anywhere.

    CTRL+C/X/V Not working ctrl+c and ctrl+v stopped working in windows 10 :(

    Hi, I hope someone can help me out.

    A few days ago, some of my keyboard shortcuts stopped working for me. As far as I know, the only shortcuts that refuse to work with me are:

    • ctrl + c
    • ctrl + x
    • ctrl + v
    • ctrl + z
    • ctrl + t (this one used to work until literally just now while I was testing it)
    I don't think that this is a hardware issue because (oddly enough), the following keyboard shortcuts DO work.

    • ctrl + w
    • ctrl + n
    • ctrl + p
    • ctrl + d
    I have already uninstalled my keyboard drivers and restarted my computer several times.

    This problem affects me across Firefox, Chrome, Line...

    The only thing of note that happened to me before this started happening is that Firefox updated and kicked my old data into a folder on my desktop.

    I desperately hope that someone can help me out; my googling so far has been fruitless.

    Keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+C & Ctrl+V) doesn't work

    *Original Title: keyboard shortcuts

    I just want to know how I can get Ctrl-c and Ctrl-v to work again.

    Currently if I have multiple tabs in Edge, pressing Ctrl just switches to the next app.

    I just want to know how I can get Ctrl-c and Ctrl-v to work again.
